ABSTRACT
This study evaluates iron particle-integrated anammox granules (IP-IAGs) to enhance wastewater treatment efficiency. The IP-IAGs resulted in notable improvements in settleability and nitrogen removal. The settling velocity of IP-IAGs increased by 17.91 % to 2.92 ± 0.20 cm/s, and the total nitrogen removal efficiency in batch mode improved by 6.82 %. These changes indicate enhanced biological activity for effective treatment. In continuous operation, the IP-IAGs reactor showed no accumulation of nitrite until 40 d, reaching a peak nitrogen removal rate (NRR) of 1.54 kg-N/m3·d and a nitrogen removal efficiency of 82.61 %. Furthermore, a partial nitritation-anammox reactor that treated anaerobic digestion effluent achieved a NRR of 1.41 ± 0.09 kg-N/m3·d, proving the applicability of IP-IAGs in real wastewater conditions. These results underscore the potential of IP-IAGs to enhance the efficiency and stability of anammox-based processes, marking a significant advancement in environmental engineering for wastewater treatment.
